In this study, a total of 17 Cladoceran and Copepod species were identified in Kesikköprü Dam Lake (Ankara) between April 1995 and May 1996. The average individual number of copepod species was found to be 51279 Ind/m 3. The highest number of copepod species was recorded in May 1995 and the lowest in February 1996. Arctodiaptomus acutilobatus was the most abundant copepod species with an average of 18541 Ind/m 3. The average individual number of Cladoceran species was found to be 47282 Ind/m 3 . Daphnia longispina was found as the most abundant cladoceran species and its peak was observed in April 1995. The highest number of Cladoceran species was recorded in June 1995 and the lowest in January 1996.
